Admittedly, I didn't discover much in March because I'm seriously budgeting right now (for the house) but I still have the recommendations for ya! Don't you worry!
To remind you! This blog series will feature all the products I tried and loved each month from my companion YouTube video. No frills or fillers.
What to expect: Mini (no BS) reviews of products, affiliate links, and discounts.
And with that, let's get started with my March favorites!
product list.
spero cream cheese | While this isn't my favorite vegan cream cheese for bagels, it's my absolute favorite for creamy sauces! The herb flavor is a perfect base for a flavorful, cheesy, delicious alfredo sauce.
dancing skeletons sweatshirt | This is officially the cutest sweatshirt in my collection. How can you not love those celebratory skeletons?! You know it had to be an Etsy find.
crayola super tips markers | I've mentioned these markers before but a little refresher because! You do not need aesthetic/fancy markers to bullet journal! I left all my mildliners in the office but it's okay because these work just as well.
widgetsmith | This is not a physical product but it is a free app. I used this to create the cutest, aesthetic, and personalized homepage on my iPhone. Very easy to use.
That's all the recs for this month - let me know if you're picking up anything mentioned here. And if you have specific items you'd like me to test/link, feel free to send a message and I'll work that out for you. See you in April!
I'm somehow back with another round of monthly favorites. I know February is short but dang, ya'll. Regardless, I'm happy to welcome March and reflect on what I loved about last month.
To remind you! This blog series will feature all the products I tried and loved each month. No frills and fillers.
What to expect: Mini (no BS) reviews of products, affiliate links, and discounts.
And with that, let's get started with February's favorites!
product list.
revive superfoods smoothies | I'm all about a quick and easy snack prep, ya feel me? I also don't like watery smoothies! Revive Superfoods checks all the boxes with their smoothie cups (plus providing helpful nutritional info). Honestly, I think they're some of the best tasting ones out there.
vegamour *new design* | I know my blog review went extremely viral (thank you!) but I'm mentioning Vegamour here because they have a new bottle design and I freaking love it. Go look for yourself. Get $10 off your first order!
honest konjac exfoliating sponge | If you're suffering from clogged pores and need to exfoliate daily but don't want to injure your face, this is the sponge for you. It exfoliates well to clear out impurities and it's also soft... you can use it every single day!
always pan | I'm only adding this to the list because it's part of the companion video. But like I said in the video, I will be doing a thorough review in the near future. For now, I can 90% recommend this pan. Stay tuned for an updated (honest) review if you're unsure to make the purchase.
incogmeato chick'n nuggets | Don't let the Mickey Mouse ears fool you - these nuggs are good. They're actually my favorite vegan chick'n nuggets at the moment! The texture is spot on and the crunchy exterior is lovely.
That's all the recs for this month - let me know if you're picking up anything mentioned here! And if you have specific items you'd like me to test/link, feel free to send a message and I'll work that out for you. See you in March!
I'm dedicating a blog post for this update because 1) I have exciting news and 2) I keep dropping random hints and I'm sure only a fraction of people have caught each update.
update #1: designs are confirmed.
This may seem like an unimportant update but I promise it's worth noting! For several months, I got stuck in the design planning because I wasn't sure how to showcase this new and exciting blog to you. My answer was here the whole time - The Conscious Root will have the same design, style, and feel of Pies n' Prose! Take a look around this blog... it'll feel familiar there. The choice was made so that you know exactly whose blog you're landing on when you click on it.
update #2: revamping the instagram tk.
What you see on the current Instagram profile for The Conscious Root will be changing in the upcoming weeks. It will also have the look and feel of Pies n' Prose! See why that first update was so important? Basically, expect The Conscious Root to be an extension of Pies n' Prose - just food forward. You can start following me there at any time.
update #3: photography edits confirmed.
Okay, this might be a slightly unimportant update for you lol. But it took me over six months to figure how I want to edit my food photos! I'm proud of this update! Be proud of me! You'll see these photos on the blog and on the Instagram.
update #4: you will be a major collaborator.
If you choose! My patrons are who I go to for sign-offs, opinions, and feedback. They helped confirm my food photography edits! If you want to play a huge role in the creation of The Conscious Root, join our Patreon coven.
update #5: top secret stuffs.
I just started working on an exclusive project that will be released before the launch of the blog. I can't confirm anything yet, but be on the lookout! It directly relates to The Conscious Root, my vegan health coach certification, and Pies n' Prose (Patrons will also gain early access to this info).
Alright so who is excited for this cause I seriously am!!! I can't wait to share more! I also appreciate your patience on the recipes - they will be here soon, promise.
I'm revamping this series in 2021! In 2020, I used this monthly post to keep you updated on whatever's happening in my life. But I already do that on Patreon and in my email newsletters (see sidebar)! If you're interested in the house hunt, NYC life, and all those other goodies, you can find me on the platforms I mentioned above.
snowflake mug | This is a high demand item based on your Instagram comments and messages! I have some bad news... it was a single, unique item. That's why I never linked it. But I'll link the Etsy store here because they have amazing items regardless. You might be able to ask the seller to bring the design back!
skull glasses | I 100% admit that this was an Instagram ad buy. But no regrets! When filled, these glasses display a gorgeous and well-designed skull. They are seriously impressive. There's no doubt people will be in awe of this beverage holder.
eden coffee roasters | Firstly, let me say that this company 1) donates 20% of profits to environmental causes organizations, 2) uses responsibly sourced and sustainable practices to make their coffee, and 3) makes some delicious coffee! I am using the Nicaragua blend and it literally smells/tastes like chocolate. (use code SARAH10 for 10% off)
pelonis portable heater | This is a bit random but if you're suffering from unresolved drafts or cold spots in your home (or live in a crappy NYC apartment like me!!!), a portable heater is such an easy fix. Because it's compact, you can move the heater around wherever you need it. And it warms the area pretty quickly despite being compact.
eufy vaccuum | I didn't think a robot vacuum would be necessary but wow this thing is extremely helpful. It cleans the entire apartment while I'm working with just a press of a button from a connected app. I have two pets with dander and my hair falls, so this vacuum picks up a lot. It's been helping with allergies, too.
leuchtturm1917 | Everyone is looking for bullet journals at the start of the year. LEUCHTTURM1917 is known to be the "official" bullet journal. And I honestly think it's great. There's no need to buy anything unique or different (though you can if you want to) because this journal gets the job done. Easy pick.
yeti mug | It's winter, it's cold, and we want our hot beverages HOT. Seriously, I hate making hot coffee only to have it go cold in minutes. I swear by the Yeti Mugs. They keep my coffee hot for a very long time. I can actually sip and enjoy my drink rather than rush it down in 5 minutes.
This blog series will instead feature all the products I tried and loved each month. No frills and fillers.
What to expect: Mini (no BS) reviews of products, affiliate links, and discounts.
And with that, let's get started with January's favorites!
product list.

patagonia frozen range jacket | I'm tired of purchasing jackets that hardly last me a year because they're not great quality. I needed something that would keep me warm in freezing temperatures but also last a lifetime. Patagonia's Frozen Range Jacket is all of the above PLUS they use 100% recycled materials. Keep an eye out for discounts - I got mine for 50% off!!
